Flu_M1_C

Influenza Matrix protein (M1) C-terminal domain
SMART ACC:SM000759
Description:This region is thought to be a second domain of the M1 matrix protein.
InterPro ACC:IPR013188
InterPro abstract:

Matrix protein (M1) of Influenza virus is a bifunctional membrane/RNA-binding protein that mediates the encapsidation of RNA-nucleoprotein cores into the membrane envelope. It is therefore required that M1 binds both membrane and RNA simultaneously. M1 is comprised of two domains connected by a linker sequence. The C-terminal domain contains α-helical structure and appears to be involved in growth … expand
